We've always had a distant admiration of Linn. One of our best lovers had the same name, for that matter. Which brings us to today's matter. The Linn Klimax Exakt System. Dividing 350 by 100, we can come up with the average number of orgasms a man can happily accept. Sure, 2.5 used to be the average number of kids per houshold, but anything less than 3.5 orgasms per love-making session, and you know that you're uninspired - 6+ for your lover, and you're a professional.
Linn first introduced their Klimax technology with their Klimax Solo ampliifers - a rather nasty term for 290W (or 500W at 4 ohms) of pure pleasure. It's a shame we never got ourselves a pair of Klimax Solo amplifiers, but at least you can't get mono from yourself. Ahem. Let us digress.
The Linn Klimax Solo introduced class D amplification to the audiophile world. B&O did it well with their ICE technology (Get Fresh, Get Icy), but people couldn't get enough of Linn's Klimax. Let's not forget their Twin.
Now the Linn Klimax Exact System forgoes the Klimax Solo's, the Klimax Control, for that matter, which was so pertinent for us not getting Linn pregnant, despite the repeated orgasmic pleasure, repeatedly, oh my, and goes straight to their Klimax Exact DSM.
What a strange name. The DSM is typically known as the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (for Mental Disorders) which Psychiatrists use to classify their patients. Like the Klimax Solo, we've never had a DSM in house, the IV being most popular, despite being ardent bibliophiles of a sort. Now Psychiatrists, we imagine are ardent Audiophiles as a class, given to leisurely pursuit.
We've read much of Freud, but it's best we return to Linn if we wish to Klimax. Gay matters have never been our interest here. We wonder what Freud would say.
Ahem. It's not a bad system, but droopy in a semen sort of way. The tweeter enclosure looks rather stupid, compared to Sony - like mandibles, or a melting candle, we would say. As for the sound, we have yet to audition the full system, but we must say that their Majik 140 technology - two steps down - is pure shite, resolving as it may.
Come what may, should you be interested in active loudspeakers, you owe it to yourself to audition the Linn.
